8 September 2015: Allhamdullilah!! Ketut the dog-walker has resurfaced AND WITH NEW EXTREME EAR PLUGS.

Its all your mother can do to take a photo before fainting. Meanwhile a ghastly group of Surabayans are doing boring snaps at the water's edge. I keep telling them to rip off their gear, go commando, and roll in the crashing waves BUT THEY THEY JUST DONT GET IT. Its the pervading influence of the Calvinistic Dutch colonials.
NEW THIS MORNING: pak cetok does his version of Mudra-inspired hatha yoga in the beach pavilion ( see photos)
